Any one have any luck with germinating Kapok seeds? Ive tried with 3 different suppliers and I cannot get any to seed. I just bought 40 more to experiment with. Any suggestions for this time around?
I've soaked them for 48 hours and placed on top of soil and then light sprinkle of soil on top. I tried placing them on bonsai soil and covering lightly with small fines. I've tried just placing them on soil and not covering them with anything. I've tried in paper towels and perlite.. I've tried a lot of things. I saw a video where Nigel Saunders threw them on bonsai soil and bang, 10 days later, up they went. ALL OF EM! This makes me want me to rip my hair out. Ive had the same problems with germinating Peppercorn seeds. Piper Nigrum. ugh.......
